There is a time when the removing of attachments becomes a dissociative disorders and even plain old denial, and some people can become attached to removing attachments. Some people become attached to Spirituality and the idea that they are A Spiritual being - which can dissociate themselves from their human aspects. Very often people clear attachments and not the cognitive structures that create them, so all that's really happening is that the attachments 'shift' - they become attached to the idea that they are non-attached. Some are also attached to the reward/punishment that they believe karma to be, if you step back from the conversations.


Attachments can tell you so much about yourself, especially if you 'explore' how they were formed in the first place and what they have to say about you as a person. They're seldom bad per se, often they're a reaction to Life in general, they can be triggered by events and our subsequent emotional reactions and perceptions. Attachments have their causes and once you find the root cause you can then alter your perceptual reality to something more constructive. Once that happens your cognitive processes change and your perceptions change along with them.
